As result what was spoken in the book comes across as skewed. The letter's entire text are needed in order to read the letter in context.
Actually, analyzing what Lee did with the letters is not about "truth and reality" v "preferences" but about false statements justified by taking snippets of these letters out of context. The whole idea that either writing had to be about "truth and reality" in the sense that Lee and the LRC use those terms is to allow truth to be ignored, even obliterated, under the guise of some "spiritual" concept that allows truth to become falsehood and falsehood become truth due to some Biblical construct. The Bible does not condone a lie under any guise. A lie is a lie. And The Fermentation of the Present Rebellion is the bearing of a false witness against men who never had a rebellious thought or action. That is not only not condoned by any construct of scripture, but entirely forbidden.

TFOTPR is a false witness in contradiction of the most basic righteousness of God that was demanded of men.
